The RPM 5 Carbon, inspired by its older brother, the RPM 9, constitutes another step in the Austrian company's determined commitment to make high-quality turntables available to an increasing number of fans. The characteristic and unmistakable geometry of the Pro-Ject RPM models, with the platter-arm-plinth system and the traction motor located in physically separate blocks, constitutes the letter of presentation of a turntable that, in addition to incorporating a sophisticated arm of carbon fiber – 9” cc EVO model – as the main novelty, it benefits from many of the refinements that we can find in the brand's highest level models. This is the case of the platter, made of acrylic material specifically treated to minimize resonances or the rotation system with inverted bearing and ceramic bearing, both solutions that contribute to the disc's rotation being exceptionally stable. Regarding the base or plinth of the system, it also uses a low resonance design that, in combination with adjustable aluminum feet, allows effective evacuation of parasitic vibrations and perfect isolation from the surrounding environment by minimizing the influence of possible interference of mechanical or acoustic origin. Finally, it is worth highlighting that another advantage that the RPM 5 Carbon provides, as a result of the use of the cc EVO arm, is its compatibility with a very wide range of pickup cartridges.
